does anyone know anyother way of of torquein the springs i only have a torque wrench that reads inchlbs

 

Is the torque figure in foot lbs? If so, just multiply the foot lb figure by 12 resulting in the equal inch lb figure. Then set this up on your torque wrench and torque away!
Just remember one thing...

 

the figure i have is in inchpounds so i should do the opposite?? like divide it by 12 would that work,,, but i wont forget that one thing... haha thanks again for you help

 

i meant to say my wrench reads in foot pounds sorry

 

It's nice to have two torque wrenches, on in foot, and one in inch, but if you don't then you have to convert.

If you have a torque figure that is given in inch lbs, say 28 inch lbs, but you have a foot lbs wrench, than simply divide by 12 to get your foot lbs figure.
28/12 = 2.33 foot lbs. I would just dial up 2.5 foot lbs and be done with it if it were me. But that's how you do it.

If you need to go from foot lbs to inch lbs than multiply by 12.

 

do it by feel with a short handle tool

 

1/4 turn short of breaking is the correct torque for ANY bolt!

 

thanks guys that helped!my bike rides now...
My torque wrench does not read under 10ftbls and couldn't get a inch pound one so i did it by hand and my clutch seems to work fine, this was my first time replacing a dirtbike clutch so i don't know what could go wrong if i didnt torque the springs enough...
